...

Under the oppression of powerful civil servant politics, the imperial palace in the Northern Song Dynasty was always very quiet. In the imperial palace, the descendant forces and eunuch forces, which had always been the main forces on the Chinese political stage, never raised their heads in the Northern Song Dynasty.

Under such circumstances, compared with other dynasties, the emperors of the Song Dynasty could basically have no fire in the backyard. Moreover, most of them could not reach the red flag at home, and colorful flags fluttered everywhere.

And Zhao Ji brought this situation of the Northern Song emperor to the extreme.

What is three thousand beauties in the harem? In the harem of the romantic emperor Zhao Ji, there are more than 1 court ladies, and there are many, many concubines. Euphemistic and affectionate, the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are all excellent, and the No.1 prostitute Li Shishi in history makes Zhao Ji's soul linger in his dreams.

In such a big environment, some of Zhao Ji's concubines would inevitably be left out in the cold.

Wei Jieyu is one of them.

They are both the bed partner of the emperor, but there is a difference, and it is very big.

Generally, women who first entered the imperial palace had the titles: Shiyu, Hongxiapei.

Further, Fengjun, Fengmao.

From now on, Madam will be talents, beauties, and Jieyu.

Enter Zhaoyi, Zhaorong, Xiuyuan, Xiuyi, Xiurong, Chongyuan, Wanrong, Wanyi, Shunrong, Guiyi, etc.

Going further is the first level of concubine, noble concubine, virtuous concubine, de concubine, Shu concubine, and Chen concubine.

From Wei Jieyu's title, it can actually be seen how much she is not favored by Zhao Ji.

In fact, for Zhao Ji, being lucky to Wei Jieyu, who was still Wei Shiyu at the time, was entirely for the sake of Wei Jieyu's friend Qiao Guifei.

The relationship between Wei Jieyu and Concubine Qiao was very good. When they entered the palace together, they were assigned to be maids in the same palace, and they fell in love with sisters.

When they were not well-developed, the two of them made an agreement to "be precious before forgetting each other", that is, whoever is well-developed should not forget to support each other, which is a bit like the meaning of a friendship with Jinlan.

Concubine Qiao was quickly favored by Zhao Ji, and she was promoted as a noble concubine.

Concubine Qiao was also really loyal, and she did not forget the promise back then, so one day when Zhao Ji was drunk, Concubine Qiao called Wei Jieyu to serve Zhao Ji together.

Unexpectedly, this Wei Jieyu's belly was really competitive, she conceived Zhao Ji's dragon seed in one go, and even gave birth to a prince for Zhao Ji.

Anyway, this child is also Zhao Ji's seed, Zhao Ji named him Zhao Gou, and because Wei Jieyu gave birth to Zhao Gou, he was promoted from Wei Shiyu to Wei Jieyu.

however!
There are too many women around Zhao Ji.

Not to mention Wei Jieyu's humble background, her appearance is also very ordinary, of course, she is not bad, but Zhao Ji has too many beauties, so she can't stand out, and she doesn't have any extraordinary talents, I really need to find out The point of excellence is probably more gentle and understanding.

But then again, how can a concubine who is with the emperor dare not be gentle and considerate?
Therefore, in Zhao Ji's eyes, Wei Jieyu's advantage is not a strong point.

All in all, Wei Jieyu was not favored by Zhao Ji.

To what extent are you unfavored?

Being unfavored, Wei Jieyu has never been lucky enough to be visited by Zhao Ji several times.

Zhao Gou grew up day by day, and gradually became sensible.

From the time he was sensible, he could see a picture every day - Wei Jieyu always stood in the courtyard of the palace admiring the flowers when the sun was setting and holding the lanterns, her eyes seemed to be fixed on the flowers, but in fact she Looking at the side of the palace wall, his face was sad and gloomy, and his frown had never been relaxed until he was no longer young.

After growing up, Zhao Gou gradually understood that his mother was not admiring the flowers, but was waiting for his father, Emperor Zhao Ji!
pity!

She has never been able to wait for Zhao Ji!

Today is Wei Jieyu's 30th birthday.

Because the mother and son are not favored, although the 30th birthday is a big day, there is no arrangement. Besides, even if it is arranged, no one will come. It is as realistic as in the palace. No, it should be more realistic. Everyone is surrounded Those favored concubines turn around, who will take care of their mother and son, so their palace is deserted as usual.

But what their mother and son never expected was that Zhao Ji came.

The mother and son were overjoyed. The palace was in a mess up and down, and everyone was in a hurry and at a loss.

The one who was most excited was Wei Jieyu, her tears welled up all at once, "The officials actually remembered my birthday, I will die without regret!"

The 12-year-old Zhao Gou was also very excited. He hadn't had close contact with his father for six or seven years!
Seeing the behavior of Wei Jieyu's people in the palace, Zhao Ji was a little embarrassed, especially seeing that Wei Jieyu didn't come to pick him up and just stood there crying!

Fortunately-

Zhao Ji is a romantic figure who never touches his body among thousands of flowers, so he is very good at dealing with this kind of situation.

He laughed and said, "Don't concubine Ai know Lian?"

Only then did Wei Jieyu come to her senses, and hurriedly picked her up.

Everyone in Wei Jieyu's palace was extremely happy from top to bottom, and the palace changed from the dullness of the past, filled with a festive atmosphere.

Zhao Gou was also very happy. His mother stood there every day admiring the flowers, and finally brought the "fruit".

But when this festive atmosphere reached its climax, Zhao Ji inadvertently said: "If I hadn't been reminded by Mrs. Qiao just now, I would have forgotten that today is your birthday."

Zhao Ji's unintentional words instantly cooled the fiery hearts of Wei Jieyu's mother and son, and the atmosphere in the palace also changed!
Coincidentally, at this moment, a eunuch came to report: "Concubine Wang Guifei is about to give birth!"

When Zhao Ji heard that his beloved concubine Wang Guifei was about to give birth, he got up and left without saying a word!

Seeing this, Zhao Gou grabbed Zhao Ji's dragon robe and said, "Royal father, today is mother's birthday, can't you stay with mother for a while?"——When he said this, Zhao Gou's eyes were full of pleading color!
Zhao Ji was a little annoyed at Zhao Gou's ignorance, but he was not easy to get angry, Zhao Gou was just a child after all.

In the end, Zhao Ji patted Zhao Gou's head perfunctorily, and said, "I will come as soon as I go, you two will wait for me for a while."

After speaking, Zhao Ji left without looking back.

The couple waited until Zishi passed, Wei Jieyu's birthday was over, and they didn't wait until Zhao Ji came back.

Wei Jieyu hugged Zhao Gou and burst into tears, saying: "My mother is only you, my mother, you must fight for my mother!"

The 12-year-old Zhao Gou already knew too much, he nodded his head heavily, and said, "Mother, don't worry, Gouer will definitely fight for your mother!"

Since then, Zhao Gou practiced martial arts more diligently. He drew his bow a thousand times a day, studied poetry and books, and recited more than a thousand words a day. In order for his father to visit his mother, he also practiced calligraphy hard, especially good at running calligraphy.

pity!

Although Zhao Gou worked very hard, since that day, Zhao Ji never came to their palace again...
